De Jesus claims he's De Messiah

Not to mention the Antichrist.

Have you heard of this guy?  There's this bizarre sect I keep hearing about in the news (probably mostly because of the popular taste for the bizarre) whose leader combines more run-of-the-mill Protestant doctrines such as "once saved always saved" and the so-called "health and wealth gospel" with weird stuff, like saying that he is Jesus. 

Now, though, he's decided that he's the Antichrist, and his followers are going out and getting 666 tattoos.  But that's not a Satanic thing, he says; it's a "good" thing, see, because it's a symbol of how he's replacing the Gospel with a new gospel of his own devising.  Sounds to me like reruns from gnosticism.

We'll have to see where this goes.  To be sure, he's an antichrist, but I think it's safe to say he seems like kind of a lightweight for the Man of Sin himself.

Yeah I saw something about this guy a while back. When he claimed to be Jesus he apparently said there was no such thing as sin. I'm not real sure what he would be savings us from if there was no sin. Maybe it was the burden of having too much money. A problem he would gladly help us out with.
